Outside of work, she enjoys antique and thrift shopping, as well as cooking and baking, especially bread. She is a lifelong Massachusetts native, but recently moved to New Hampshire with her boyfriend, thanks to the help of two of our incredible movers!

National Account Manager
Chris is an influential member of our staff and has over thirty years of experience in the moving and relocation industry. He takes pride in the fact that Gentle Giant doesn't hire one-day-only movers, which allows the staff to get to know each crew member and guarantee excellent service to our customers. From the front desk to the sales team to the crew on moving day, Chris believes the great service we offer is notable and different compared to other companies in the industry.

Originally from Cardiff, Wales, Chris was a former semi-professional rugby player, which gave him the opportunity to play and coach in the United States and travel throughout California, Florida and now the East Coast. He lives in Waltham, MA with his wife and is the father to two sons. He enjoys golfing and fishing with his family.

I have nothing but praise for Gentle Giant, both Catherine and Elizabeth in the Providence office, and the fantastic crew of movers they sent to us, Shane, Alex, Alex, and Dan!All my questions were clearly and patiently answered. And . . . the moving crew was awesome! They were professional, considerate, thorough, and EXTREMELY careful with all our belongings, and both of the houses at either end of the move.Since this was only a partial move, we we certainly be hiring them again to finish moving the rest of our belongings in a couple of months!

Fantastic experience with the Gentle Giant crew who relocated our entire household from one state to another. They were polite, professional and eager to help. Their calm manner set the tone for a stress-free experience.

I've dealt with other movers in the past and these guys are by far the very best. I can see why they are award-winning. They present themselves as clean & professional. They are kind, respectful and thoughtful. They know what you need before you even realize you need it! Also, they are extremely efficient and leave the house clean when they are done. I cannot say enough about Gentle Giant and highly recommend!

Update: GG called us to resolve this issue and refunded us for the drive time on the first day. We appreciate the good customer service!They charged us for an hours drive each way to get to our location (Providence - 20 minutes drive from their office). This significantly increased our move cost, especially as they insisted on packing on a different day from the move (it took them 1.5 hours to pack so they could have packed and moved us on the same day). It’s a scam to drive up prices.

Sean and Michael were fantastic. Always willing to help on all tasks. They could not have been nicer or more accommodating. My daughter and I were really impressed. I would never move without them! Thank you for the personal service. Tina and Erica Dolen

From my very first phone call, each person was competent, very responsive, professional on every level, and compassionate about the stress of the move. Franz evaluated the initial cost followed by the moving team, headed by Ryan, who treated our “stuff” with more care than I would have done! They all introduced themselves and set to work diligently and carefully. Every step was completely transparent. They asked questions, thinking ahead for us as we transition. I cannot say enough about the competence and professionalism of this team. The bonus was a digital inventory, which included a pictures of our items as well as a narrative of the contents of each box. Phenomenol! I will never ever use a different company for any future moves. I forgot to say that their efficiency and attention to detail ended up saving us money from the original quote. I don’t believe I have ever worked with a more ethical and competent company.
